Additional Comments

Install work around (slight changes from the recommendations in the comments): WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=$HOME/.vmware-client ./winetricks msxml3 dotnet35sp1 vcrun2005 vcrun2008 vcrun2010 WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=$HOME/.vmware-client wine VMware-viclient-all-5.1.0-2306356.exe When you get the hcmon install failure, copy the entire contents of your wine bottle to a tmp directory, complete the installation (says it failed), then mv the contents back. cp $HOME/.vmware-client $HOME/.vmware-client2 rm -rf $HOME/.vmware-client mv $HOME/.vmware-client2 $HOME/.vmware-client Now you can run the vSphere Client with: WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=$HOME/.vmware-client wine ~/.vmware-client/drive_c/Program\ Files/VMware/Infrastructure/Virtual\ Infrastructure\ Client/Launcher/VpxClient.exe
